Flying Down to Rio (1933)

Goofs

Flying Down to Rio

Edit

Continuity

While Fred and Honey are seated watching the Carioca, their position changes. First she is on his right, then she is on his left, and before they get up to dance, she is back on his right.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

From the height they were flying, most of the "dance" routines of the young women on the plane wings would not be visible to people on the ground.

While true, this observation is not a Goof. The purpose of the event likely was more for advertising or Newsreel value, or even simply "bragging rights".

Revealing mistakes

Although it's supposed to be in flight, one of the planes in the big wing-walker sequence has a bad matte effect at the bottom of its wheels and visible tie down wires attached to its tail. The same mistake can be seen on the plane in at least three shots.
Just after the flying sequence with the wing dancers, the characters are sitting on the terrace. The back projected image is to the wrong scale, resulting in someone with an enormous head being next to the parapet.

Character error

The Haitian at the golf club has a British accent, but Haiti was never British. He should have a Haitian accent.
The violinist in the section where Fred is working with a group of inexperienced girl dancers has his bow set between the strings and the back of his violin. At the end of the number, the bow is used correctly.
